Thinking Of You Sugar

I'm loving distress ink watercolouring at the moment and it just seems to go so well with the Sarah Kay images. This one uses Basic Grey papers and embellished by cutting out the heart leafs from another sheet and giving dimension with silicone glue. The metal hearts were coloured with alcohol inks and the lace with VersaCraft ink. The sentiment is from Inkadinkado, the plaque and the corners are from Stamps Away.



Materials:
Stamp - Sarah Kay; Stamps Away; Inkadinkado
Inks - Tim Holtz Distress inks; VersaFine Onyx Black; VersaCraft Brick
Colouring - Distress inks; Derwent Inktense
Papers - Basic Grey Sugared
Usual Suspects - Paper Trimmer; Silicone glue; Double-sided tape; Scissors
Others - Pins; Lace; 3D-glue; Metal; Metal tools; Alcohol inks
